AHM's first Mikado offering, this model appears in the line around 1980 and is priced then at
$198.98. In addition to this Rivarossi-made 2-8-2 Mikado, AHM's 1981 catalog also includes the announcement of its Smoking
"Big Mikes" made in Yugoslovia by Mehano. The Rivarossi Mikado is last among the AHM line in 1981.
This USRA Mikado 2-8-2 was among the last of the Rivarossi Italian-made imports to be included
in AHM's product line. Above are the 1976 AHM Parts Sheets for this model. You may click on either image to open a larger
